Posted: 8/23/2006 8:57:15 PM | I thought that I would start this thread and hopefully it hasn’t been done before. Would like to hear what other quotes and sayings that others have to offer. Figured I would start with two to see if we can get this thing rolling
Life should not be a journey to the grave, with the intention of arriving safely in a attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, cigar in one hand, favorite beverage in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming
WOW – what a ride!
If you are not living life on the edge, than you are just taking up to much space, life is simply a matter of balance! | |

Posted: 8/24/2006 4:16:16 PM | You are destined to die, I am destined to die. Yet it would seem that the only real death is the one unlived.

Posted: 8/24/2006 4:21:28 PM | "I can live with doubt and uncertainty and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong... I don't have to know an answer. I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in a mysterious universe without any purpose, which is the way it really is as far as I can tell. It doesn't frighten me."
Feynman, Richard, quoted in Gleick, Genius: The life & Science of Richard Feynman, p. 438 | |

| Some of life’s best quotes and sayings:
Posted: 8/25/2006 7:47:27 PM | The truth is, we hide so we can be found. We walk away to see who will follow. We cry to see who will wipe away our tears. We let our hearts get broken to see who will come and fix them.
My head is saying 'who cares about him?' but my heart is saying 'i do.'
Push me up against the wall and kiss me with no intention of ever stopping.
It all comes down to that last person you think about before you fall asleep.
You wanna see how much i love you? Go outside when its raining and catch drops on your tounge. The ones you catch are how much you love me, the ones you miss is how much i love you.
People ask me if i believe in forever and i cant help but sit back and laugh because with the way my life's going, i dont even believe in tomorrow.

Posted: 8/27/2006 10:26:34 PM | Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink
I feel shame Then I look into the glass and think
about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes
and dreams . If I didn't drink this wine, they might be out
of work and their dreams would be shattered.
Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this wine and let their
dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."

The Rose that grew from Concrete.
The Rose that Grew from Concrete
Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping it's dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.

Posted: 8/28/2006 5:20:16 AM | | Like I said in my profile, maybe people who are extremely active as you have indicated, only ape their FEAR of Death. I have thought about this and can't for the life of me discount that it could be true. Think about it. Errr, not too long though, man, 'cos you'll be wasting time doing that, esp. when you could be abseiling or partying....(Jeeeeeeezus) | |
